Hi Ben --

You may not need a loop.  See if this is close to what you want, or gives you a hint to solve it yourself --

//--------------------------------------

//    MultipleGaps.afl
//
Gap = L>Ref(H,-1);
LookBack = 15;
GapCount = Sum(Gap,Lookback);
Buy = GapCount>=2;
Sell = BarsSince(Buy)>=5;

Plot(C,"C",colorBlack,styleLine);
PlotShapes(shapeUpArrow*Gap,colorGreen);

//---------------------------------------

Thanks,
Howard

Hey guys

thanks for this resource - too bad i cant even work out how to use this yahoo group let
alone learn AFL!

Any way, im trying to create part of a buy signal when 2 breakaway gaps occur in the past
15 days. Should I run a loop using a count function?

for(i=0; i<BarCount; i++) //where BarCount=15???
{
if (getup() == 1)
{
bag_count++ //breakaway gap count??
}

Buy = (bag_count >=2) AND .....

Any help would be much appreciated!

Cheers
Ben
